Ghostrunner

Ghostrunner is a first-person action game set in a cyberpunk world. The remnants of humanity live in a tower city, where the upper levels belong to the rich and the lower levels drown in poverty. The tower is divided into levels, and each one is more difficult than the previous one. The rhythm of the battle is based on precise dashes and jumps. Every death teaches a route. Wall jumping requires precision. The hero is a cyborg ninja, and almost any enemy blow is fatal to him. But the enemies fall in one hit, so the battle turns into a quick dance along the walls and beams. Enemies differ in weapons and reaction speed. After death, the area begins again instantly. Levels require a clean passage without errors. Parkour is the basis here: running along walls, dashing and slowing down time allows you to go through rooms without stopping. For every mistake you have to start the section over again. New abilities are unlocked as you progress. New techniques are revealed along with the plot. Abilities are combined with each other. Bosses test everything the player has learned. The story is about the struggle for the city and those who rule it. The additions added separate tests and modes. Records and voices in the hero's head explain the past. The music picks up the pace as the fight progresses. Races are judged by completion time. The plot is told in short inserts. For those who love speed and accuracy, this tower is suitable. Time trials test skill. The updates brought a mode with a new heroine. Speedrunning has become a separate discipline.
